1  Scopep. 20

The present document specifies the radio network layer signalling protocol for the NG interface. The NG Application Protocol (NGAP) supports the functions of the NG interface by signalling procedures defined in this document. NGAP is developed in accordance to the general principles stated in TS 38.401 and TS 38.410.

3  Definitions and abbreviationsp. 22

3.1  Definitionsp. 22

For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in TR 21.905 and the following apply. A term defined in the present document takes precedence over the definition of the same term, if any, in TR 21.905.
ACL functionality:
as defined in TS 36.413.
CAG cell:
as defined in TS 38.300.
DAPS Handover:
as defined in TS 38.300.
Elementary Procedure:
NGAP consists of Elementary Procedures (EPs). An Elementary Procedure is a unit of interaction between the NG-RAN node and the AMF. These Elementary Procedures are defined separately and are intended to be used to build up complete sequences in a flexible manner. If the independence between some EPs is restricted, it is described under the relevant EP description. Unless otherwise stated by the restrictions, the EPs may be invoked independently of each other as standalone procedures, which can be active in parallel. The usage of several NGAP EPs together or together with EPs from other interfaces is specified in stage 2 specifications (e.g., TS 38.401, TS 38.410 and TS 38.300).
An EP consists of an initiating message and possibly a response message. Two kinds of EPs are used:
  • Class 1: Elementary Procedures with response (success and/or failure).
  • Class 2: Elementary Procedures without response.
For Class 1 EPs, the types of responses can be as follows:
  • Successful:
    • A signalling message explicitly indicates that the elementary procedure successfully completed with the receipt of the response.
  • Unsuccessful:
    • A signalling message explicitly indicates that the EP failed.
    • On time supervision expiry (i.e., absence of expected response).
  • Successful and Unsuccessful:
    • One signalling message reports both successful and unsuccessful outcome for the different included requests. The response message used is the one defined for successful outcome.
    Class 2 EPs are considered always successful.
